 Hello everyone! My name is Keon and I will introduce myself to you using one of my favorite hobbies (reading). Reading can often be seen as just a boring task or something required by a class but that's not the type of reading I'm talking about! Fun reading is what I like to call it. Have you ever read for fun? When I'm feeling stressed or even when I'm bored I love to pick up a book and get lost in a different world. 

The '"fun" thing about reading is all the different genres, I love to read YA and Fantasy books notably Twilight. When I read fantasy books I easily get lost in whatever world I am reading about especially with how descriptive the books are it makes the story much more realistic. Fantasy may not be for everyone but there is something out there for everyone like horror, mystery & thriller, memoirs (another favorite), and even mangas.

The first time I fell in love with reading was in 6th grade when we were assigned "Percy Jackson and The Lightning Thief" for English of course initially I thought that it was just another boring reading we had to do but I ended up loving the book I loved it so much I got the rest of the series which I equally loved and even though it's considered a middle school book it's still in my top 10 reads.
